Hi all,
I'll try to describe the problem in a simple way: I once created an Access DB with everything necessary, e.g. mdb, mdw and then put them all in a shared network file something ununderstandable happened: a colleague, whom I granted ONLY read-access, click on the DB he could write in the DB!!! Although as I said I granted him a read-access only. The OS on both PC are windows XP and the MS-Access version on both is 2003. Any help? Thanks for your answers in advance!

Answer Wiki

To start, are there any other groups given write permissions to the network folder and if so, is that person a member of one of those groups? Also, verify that the mdb inherited the read-only permission.
